Shipments of LNG through Panama Canal may rise after expansion
Shipments of liquefied natural gas through the Panama Canal may climb once expansion work on the waterway is completed, in 2014.
Once development is completed, 80% of LNG carriers will be able to fit through the canal’s locks, up from 6% currently, TradeWinds said. In practice, no such vessels presently use the link. Repsol YPF is interested in using the canal to ship LNG from Peru and Kitimat LNG Inc. is also considering using the waterway to sell Canadian cargoes to customers in the Atlantic, TradeWinds reported. The 80-kilometer (50-mile) canal, which connects the Pacific Ocean with the Caribbean Sea, is undergoing a $5.25 billion expansion.

A word from ESPO
 1 September is not only the start of a new school year for many children, it also marks a fresh start for EU lobbyists after the August intermezzo during which the otherwise buzzing Schuman quarter in Brussels traditionally becomes an eerie ghost town.
